IC XC Nika

Description

The digital reconstruction of the medieval orthodoxal symbol of IC XC NIKA. It’s a partly abbreviated form of the Greek ᾽Ιησου̑ς Ξριστὸς νίκα, “Jesus Christ, conquer,” or ᾽Ιησου̑ς Ξριστὸς νικι̑, “Jesus Christ conquers” (DOC 3.1:231). Inspired by Constantine I’s vision at the Milvian Bridge. The vector and raster image reconstruction could be of use for graphic designers and publishers as well as to people interested in the medieval history of arts.
